The tools it lists (4, as of 4 days ago)

The tool-description rules found nothing in these descriptions. They look for instructions aimed at a model and for hidden characters; they cannot see what a tool does when it runs.

• search_vehicles

  Find series by name, maker name, or a generation's chassis code. Series names match by normalized substring (width, case, kana), maker names by prefix, chassis codes by substring of the code as written (a slash-joined code is one string, not split). Returns {query, total, hits: [{series, maker, matched_models}], next_offset} where each series and model carries its public page url; pass the ids in the hits to the other skills. Hits are ranked and cut to fit the response size; when next_offset is not null, call again with offset set to it for the rest. Empty hits means nothing matched the query.

• get_vehicle

  Get one series with the list of its generations (models) and the cited sources, and with a model_id also that generation in detail. Returns {series, maker, models, sources}, plus model when a model_id is given. Each entry in models has id, name, chassis_code, start_year, end_year (null = still on sale), description, source_url and its public page url; the list is always the whole series. model is the named generation with drivetrains, displacements (engine displacement in cc, one row per engine), and engineers (each with role_name, source_url citing the person's own career, and link_source_url

• get_vehicle_relationships

  Get the relationships between generations (succession, sibling, derivation, spiritual successor). A series_id returns the relations of the whole series; a model_id returns only the relations that have that generation at either end. Returns {series_id, url, total, relations, next_offset}, plus model_id when given: each relation has kind and kind_name, kind_directed, from_model and to_model (each with id, name, chassis_code, start_year, end_year, series_name and public page url), and where the source requires one, source_url with the verbatim source_excerpt; rationale is filled for spiritual suc

• get_sales_figures

  Get the sales figures of a series. Without region_code it returns the overview {series_id, url, region_totals, lifetime, coverage, regions}; with region_code it returns that region year by year {series_id, url, region_code, region_totals, coverage, cells, figures, next_year_from}. region_totals sum years within one country only, so never add across countries or add a parent region to its children. lifetime rows are cumulative or per-generation totals that must not be added to the grid. With a model_id, region_totals and lifetime are those of that generation; otherwise region_totals are the ser
